out the new Marlin 336 in 30-30. This is the answer I got from the folks that know....
Marlin’s new Model 336 will be available in the Spring of 2023 and is expected to be under $1,000.

Now you know.

Thanks for that John.

Was there any mention of a .38/.357 model 1894?

They bitched that Ruger hadn't built the 1895 yet until the 1895 was introduced. Then they bitched about the price. Now they are bitching about the new model 336 and whining that Ruger should make it available for under $500. In the news release about the 1894 the announcement said it would be available for less than $1000. That just set the whiners off again. I noticed this morning that the whiners are bitching that Ruger should have put the 38/37 model 1894 first. Ruger is smart. They know the 1894 will be mainly a hunting rifle and the 44 Magnum fits that little nitch perfectly. The 38/357 is a great little rifle but for hunting larger game the 44 magnum brings home the bacon.

When the news release mentioned the 1894 in 44 Magnum the whiners went at it again with "now maybe the ammo manufacturers will get off their butts and make the 44 Magnum ammo affordable again".
You just can't please them all.

I've been looking for one of these since they announced Marlin was out of business. Used versions are hard to find and everyone wants to retire with the proceeds since word got around that someone's initials on the barrel makes them as rare as platinum hen's teeth. If Marlin starts making a 38/357 version I stand a better chance of finding one either new or possibly a used one at a better price. I'm in the same boat as John W on here with a small supply of large pistol primers but and adequate supply of small pistol primers and see them for sale regularly. Simply a matter of wanting to shoot more levergun more often. If I hunt with one I will just get close enough to make it effective on game and it doesn't take a .44 to do it.
